Time to kill the shot meter

[thedream2k16]

The title says it all. I saw Mike Wang mention that he wished he never put it in the game and I agree. The hand holding is over and the crying about " Im Missing Green Releases!!!) would be over quickly. Opinions?

It should be feedback only.

Very true.

Disagree strongly. Removing the shot-meter would remove a skilled portion of the game.

please expand on what park of skill will be removed. Or are you talking about the part where you look at the meter fill up instead of your player's natural shooting motion?

??? Staring at a meter instead of learning release is considered skill? its the same mechanic as its always been for years. Only difference is GREEN= Make regardless of ratings

That's some wierd thinking right here. The shot meter makes the game more accessible and doesn't add any skill whatsoever.

Did Mike really say that though ? I'am kind of surprised.

Loool skill to get a meter green! This is what the game has become....

How bad do you guys think Mike's twitter is going to be when he eventually takes away the green release.

Re: Time to kill the shot meter

Shot-meter is only there to show how close or how late you are from your perfect release. Now it just gives you 100% to bang your shot when open on perfect release.

If you don't like it, just play it on real-player % if you want your sim-style play.

Removing the 100% green will remove the skill part of it.

Also this game want's to be E-sport so you have to reduce the amount of RNG the game has to be considered such.

Mike might want to suspend his Twitter account for several months if he ever decide to remove the green meter, lol.

In hindsight, it's actually is more skill to learn the shooting motions of the player ala NBA 2K11. I admit, I fell into the trap of the shot meter and looking for the green release. I have turned it off, and I'm actually shooting better once I re-learned my player's shooting motion.

The crazy part is that I'm less frustrated or angry when I miss a shot, because I have no clue how close to perfect I was.

Does real fg% have anything to do with user timing? Meaning I could use Kyle korver, hold down the shoot button (release it late) and it will not affect the success of his shot?

I vaguely remember the comment, but I don't remember how he said it and the context of the conversation. It's buried in a thread somewhere on OS.

Pretty sure he said he wished they never put green releases in the game, not the shot meter.

It will still effect his shot, slightly early and late won't be effected as much on real time %. You just lose the green 100% make on that setting.
